This may have been previously mentioned, but it would be a great addition to enable stealthers to see other stealthers in their group. This was a popular feature on Live, and doesn't hurt others by enabling this capability.

No thanks. Don't want to enable the stealth zergs. If it was limited to say a duo, I would be fine with it.

I agree. I think it's an excellent idea. However, I also think more anti-stealth things could be in place otherwise it'll only result in even more stealth zerging.

How about a compromise. Grouped stealthers can see each other but the more stealthers that are concealed in a small area the worse their stealth gets.

Yes, but it's going to be bad for you too. Also I did give an exception for duos and as far as I know your usually solo or duo..

As long as it only affects the stealthers within a group. Otherwise you could grief fellow players as a stealther by sticking to them.

if i was a stealther player, id so +1 this big time honestly.

....buuuuut since i believe that daoc would be a better game without stealth classes and that they are a waste of playercount ill go with "no."

this would also be a bad idea for duos, as it would favor duoing alot more. since im a solo stealther i can not support this. clear "NO" to this

I made a similar suggestion years ago on postcount.net years ago but it only made stealthzergers cry.

Why not add a buff as well that increases each stealther person damage by 10% based on how many are in a group oO xD (kidding ofc but would be so hilarious, my fellows from Silva Arcana would steamroll zergs on their own haha) ^^

I don't think it's a bad idea, in fact how about a general buff to see hidden that applies only to your own realm, aka you can see other friendly (and helpful) stealthers around you in 1k range? This way you know if the bridge / dock you are headed to is already camped, how many, if they are known or unknown entities (so you can join or /emote them) etc.

Would be nice indeed. Also give necros spec AF in servant spec ty. to balance the buff to stealth xD

It was a popular feature and one of the main reasons for stealth zergs 8-16 + slots.

I hope this feature will never make it on Phoenix.

Mhm, less rps for you if there were no stealth classes, and you make a lot roaming around Bled, or? They`re nearly a freefrag for a skald

Just increase the detection radius in group +300 and for the rest, the group position on map are there. I don't see how it would change things so dramatically.

People act like stealthers being able to see their team mates will make them wipe out 8 mans and make an actual difference lol. This has all been done before in daoc and this did not change the game at all. People still played in the same style they choose to play at the moment. They are in a group and should be able to see each other doesn't make sense.

if i cared that much about rps i wouldnt be R6 on my highest char. id simply be going either pure solo or 8man. not duoing or smallmanning with ppl who have next to zero pvp experience.
i simply think that stealthers are more of an annoyance than anything else. doesnt even matter which side they are on.
